STUDY

STEP 1: Registration

All applicants must register for the admission procedure using only the online registration, which is accessible on the website of the University of Klagenfurt during the period from the 1 March to 15 May 2020.

Registrations for the admission procedure that are submitted in another form or that arrive after the deadline cannot be considered.

The admission procedure will only take place in the event that the number of registrations for the admission procedure  exceeds the respective number of study places available. If the predetermined number of places for one of the Bachelor’s degree programme has not been reached on 15 May  2020, the subsequent steps of the admission procedure for the Bachelor’s degree programme are dispensed with. In this case, applicants can proceed directly to step 6.

Note: Participation in the entrance examination for the indicated degree programme at the University of Klagenfurt is associated with the transfer of your personal data (name, date of birth, identification code, as well as selected field of study and selected degree programme) to other Austrian universities in case of a possible extended registration at the university of your choice.

STEP 2: Confirmation of registration

Registered applicants will receive a confirmation from the University of Klagenfurt by e-mail.

STEP 3: 1st part of the admission procedure

The first part of the admission procedure consists of  uploading the documentary evidence concerning the required English language skills (level B2 acc. to CEFR) and of the letter of motivation, using the registration portal of the University of Klagenfurt.

• English language skills
  Accepted forms of documentary evidences for the required English language skills (in German)
• Letter of motivation
  The letter of motivation should provide an indication of the extent to which you have thought about your choice of degree. You should therefore take particular care to explain the following two points:
  • Why you would like to study International Business and Economics
  • Why you would like to pursue this degree in Klagenfurt

  The scope of the motivation letter should be approximately one DIN A4 page, and no more than 2 DIN A4 pages (font size 12, e.g. Times New Roman, line spacing 1.5) and the letter must be written in English.

STEP 4: 2nd part of the admission procedure– written examination

The successful completion of the first part of the admission procedure forms the basis for participating in the written examination on the 9 July 2020  (Universitätsstr. 65-67, A-9020 Klagenfurt). Applicants will be assigned to a lecture hall upon arrival. It is not possible to select or request alternative dates or to repeat the admission exam on another day. Participants are required to bring a valid passport or official proof of identity on the day of the exam.

The purpose of the written examination is to determine the understandingof the literature provided. For this purpose, the candidates will be presented with questions in writing about the prescribed literature, which they can answer by ticking boxes (multiple-choice items).
